InMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (CSE: IN) (OTCQB: IMLFF) Aims at Future of Cannabinoid Compound Treatment

  • Specializing in novel cannabinoid drug therapies, InMed Pharmaceuticals is well-poised for cannabinoid research and development of new treatments
  • Glaucoma and skin disease pharmaceuticals now in development have an estimated $7.6 billion potential market
  • InMed Pharmaceutical’s chief medical officer helped $3 billion GW Pharmaceuticals develop one of the first cannabis-based drugs

With its proprietary bioinformatics assessment tool, cannabinoid biosynthesis technology and drug development pipeline, InMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (CSE: IN) (OTCQB: IMLFF) is well-positioned to target the future of cannabinoid pharmaceutical compounds.

InMed is a pre-clinical stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of novel therapies through research and development of the 90+ individual cannabinoid compounds which occur naturally in cannabis.

InMed can rapidly analyze and identify novel cannabinoids to find new drug candidates with the highest therapeutic benefit and fewest adverse effects. The company’s unique research approach using proprietary bioinformatics tools expedites the identification of bioactive compounds with the potential to treat specific diseases, while its comprehensive pharmaceutical and cannabinoid structures database allow InMed to identify active cannabinoids that will act on genes and proteins.

Two major medications are in development by InMed Pharmaceuticals: a glaucoma treatment and a drug therapy for epidermolysis bullosa (EB). The two markets combined have an estimated value of $7.6 billion. Clinical trials for both candidates are expected to start in 2018.

In June, InMed Pharmaceuticals announced an agreement with Pharmaseed Ltd. to develop the final formulation for INM-750, a treatment in development as a therapy for EB and other dermatological and wound applications.

Epidermolysis bullosa comprises a group of inherited connective tissue diseases which typically affect the skin, causing it to become extremely fragile and prone to blistering and tearing. The disease can also affect bodily systems and internal organs. There is currently no approved treatment for EB. InMed’s topical formulation includes multiple cannabinoids to target keratin modulation, as well as inflammation, healing, skin regeneration, itching, and pain.

A second pharmaceutical in InMed’s pipeline, INM-085, treats glaucoma, an eye disorder which increases pressure in the eye, damages the optic nerve and is one of the leading causes of blindness in the developed world. The glaucoma medication could become the first-ever treatment for the disease that is multi-target and uses multiple cannabinoids for maximum effectiveness.

InMed Pharmaceuticals’ impressive management team includes Chief Medical Officer Dr. Ado Muhammed, a former associate medical director for GW Pharmaceuticals. Muhammed was instrumental in leading GW Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GWPH) through development and approval of one of the world’s first cannabis-based drugs, taking the company’s shares from less than $9 in 2013 to $100 today and building a market value of more than $2.5 billion.

InMed Pharmaceuticals president and CEO Eric Adams is a seasoned biopharmaceutical executive with over 25 years’ experience in company and capital formation, global market development, mergers & acquisitions, licensing and corporate governance. Adams previously served as CEO at enGene Inc. and held key senior roles in global market development with QLT Inc. (Vancouver), Advanced Tissues Science Inc. (La Jolla), Abbott Laboratories (Chicago), and Fresenius AG (Germany).

InMed’s Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Sazzad Hossain has more than 20 years of academic and industrial experience in new drug discovery and natural health product development. Hossain held key roles at the Biotechnology Research Institute of National Research Council Canada and Xenon Pharmaceuticals. CFO Jeff Charpentier is a 25-year veteran of the biopharmaceutical industry and has served at several public and private companies in the pharmaceutical and technology sectors.

With lots of opportunity, a share price of less than 30 cents and a market cap of about $34 million, InMed looks like a good opportunity to profit from what may become the next success story in the ongoing quest to cure and mitigate disease with cannabinoid-based therapeutics.

Patriot One Technologies’ (TSX.V: PAT) (OTCQB: PTOTF) PATSCAN Defends Against Terrorists and Active Shooters

  • PATSCAN CMR™ technology to detect concealed weapons & ordnance
  • Microwave radar technology developed in collaboration with McMaster University
  • Non-intrusive system units can be deployed covertly

Patriot One Technologies, Inc. (TSX.V: PAT) (OTCQB: PTOTF) is on the frontline of the fight against terrorists and active shooters, the latter defined by law enforcement agencies as ‘an individual or individuals actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a populated area’. In collaboration with McMaster University of Canada, the company has developed novel technology which detects weapons and other ordnance carried into public spaces and reduces the risk posed by malevolent actors. Unlike present weapons detection systems, the Patriot One units employing this innovative technology can be deployed without the knowledge or awareness of those being scanned. In addition, there is no stop-and-scan or intrusive invasions of privacy. With its new PATSCAN technology, Patriot One is offering airports, train stations, nightclubs, concert venues and other public arenas the capability to deter, detect and defend against terrorists and active shooters.

Patriot One’s preemptive approach to warding off gun and bomb violence employs cutting-edge microwave radar technology linked to machine algorithms. The low-power radar system scans people and property as they pass through the field of the device. This data is relayed continuously to sophisticated algorithms that access a database of ordnance “signatures” and make a determination, in real time, of a possible security threat. By running the scan against the signatures in the database, the system quickly identifies whether someone is carrying a gun, knife, bomb or some other potentially dangerous device or object.

Patriot One’s PATSCAN, developed in collaboration with researchers from McMaster University, is markedly different from traditional weapons detection technology. Current weapons detection systems are highly visible and tend to create the sort of ominous atmosphere one might expect in a prison, perhaps, but not at a teenage pop concert. However, PATSCAN can be deployed covertly behind walls, ceilings and floor panels and is, in effect, invisible to the public. Consequently, it increases the likelihood that an actor with malicious intent will give himself away. The technology, which will certainly prove disruptive to the security industry, is rather less so in operation. It requires no stop-and-scan; no searching of handbags and emptying of pockets; and no body scans that may violate the norms of privacy or decency. In many ways, PATSCAN CMR is clean technology, and its merits are getting a nod from industry experts.

Earlier this year, the company announced the Security Industry Association (SIA) had recognized it as winners of the Anti-Terrorism / Force Protection category in the New Product Showcase (NPS) component of the ISC West industry trade show and conference in Las Vegas, Nevada (http://dtn.fm/8pwAK). SIA NPS judges are highly skilled and experienced in security technology design and application and are required to have a minimum of 10 years experience in the selection, purchase and or installation of products within the category that they are judging. The PATSCAN has, so far, achieved a 94 percent true positive detection, which is far ahead of traditional metal detector rates.

Patriot’s order book is growing, and inquiries from potential clients and distributors continue to pour in. Last month, one such inquiry, from Down Under, blossomed into a new partnership. Patriot One announced it had entered into a reseller agreement with accredited national systems integration experts Aotea Security (NZ) Ltd. of Dunedin, New Zealand (http://dtn.fm/7UsxI). Aotea Security is the security specialist arm of the Aotea Group of companies, which provides New Zealand’s only truly nationwide solution for electronic security, electrical, fire, and communications services.

Patriot One is now in the process of obtaining certification from Industry Canada and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the U.S. for its commercial PATSCAN units. The company hopes to start shipping commercial units in the fall.

American Energy Partners, Inc. (XFUL) Synergistic Subsidiaries Extracting Value at the Nexus of Water and Oil & Gas

  • Synergistic subsidiaries
  • Awaiting approval of water treatment patent application
  • Augmented management team

Although water covers 70 percent of the Earth’s surface and is its most abundant resource, the five-year drought in California and the recent water crisis in Flint, Michigan, show that our reserves are ever under threat. With this in mind, it’s nice to know that supplies of the precious commodity for household, industrial, and agricultural use are not being taken for granted. Converde Energy USA, Inc., d/b/a American Energy Partners Inc. (OTC: XFUL), has developed water treatment technology that is in the final stages of the patent process. In addition, the company’s three divisions cleverly catalyze each other, providing the synergy for growth. With its newly augmented management team and synergistic subsidiaries, Converde Energy’s imminent name change to American Energy Partners signals the company’s strengthened position and developing momentum.

The Ancient Mariner lamented, “Water, water, everywhere, nor any drop to drink.” That is because most of it (about 97 percent) is in the oceans and too salty for drinking, growing crops, or many other human uses. Much of the other three percent is unavailable, since it is held in the ice caps of Antarctica and Greenland or in deep underground aquifers where, for most practical purposes, it is inaccessible to us. Therefore, only about one percent of the Earth’s fresh water, in rivers, lakes and accessible groundwater resources, can be tapped for human use. A lot of that, unfortunately, needs a great deal of filtration and sanitization before it’s usable.

However, XFUL is already on the job and, as an example of the kind of job the company can do, a recent press release (http://dtn.fm/d0lfA) sheds a revealing light. XFUL announced it was collaborating with the Eastern Pennsylvania Coalition for Abandoned Mine Reclamation (EPCAMR) and the Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC) in a multi-phase study of the Mocanaqua Abandoned Mine Drainage (AMD) Tunnel. The project is designed to test the viability and safety of releasing “the millions of gallons of treated mine influenced water during low flow conditions into the local watershed that feeds the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania”. The Mocanaqua AMD Tunnel holds a significant pool of isolated mine water thought to exceed 500 billion gallons.

The company’s Gilbert unit (Gilbert Oil & Gas Company) continues the search for such opportunities, leveraging its broad industry valuation experience to develop partnerships with companies operating in the oil and gas space, with the emphasis on positive cash flow. XFUL’s other two subsidiaries, Hydration Company of PA (HCPA) and American Energy Solutions (AES), have a broader remit, however. Their potential markets extend far beyond oil and gas, as their services can be offered to municipalities, factories, and farming, power production and other industrial concerns. Gilbert’s activities are likely to seed the growth of HCPA and AES, since Gilbert could be their customer. This synergy is set to bootstrap XFUL on its way to becoming fully integrated and operational.

At Gilbert’s helm is newly-appointed President Josh Hickman, who will also sit on XFUL’s board. Hickman, an oil and gas exploration geologist, is a tested deal finder and dealmaker with a solid track record of closing deals. He brings over 15 years’ experience in the oil and gas industry to the XFUL team, with stints at Consol Energy, Cabot Oil and Gas, Edgemarc Energy Holdings and Dahlmont Energy Resources under his belt. He is also the founder of Hickman Geological Consulting, which specializes in applying the principles of technical data and financial understanding to growth businesses in the oil and gas space.

ChineseInvestors.com (CIIX) Eyes Expansion in CBD Markets throughout North America

  • Sees opportunities in the fast-growing international medical marijuana market
  • Plans store opening in San Gabriel, California, with online hemp-based product store already in Shanghai, China, targeting the global Chinese-speaking community
  • Consilium Global Research projects that company revenues will reach $14.8 million by FY2020

ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX) is employing a strategy of selling cannabidiol (CBD) in North America. It plans for a brick-and-mortar store in San Gabriel, California, as well as recently incorporating CBD Biotechnology, Inc., in British Columbia, Canada. It also has an online CBD store with hemp-based products located in the free trade zone of Shanghai, China, designed to serve the global Chinese-speaking population.

CIIX offers educational and consulting services to the Chinese community. Most recently, it has been pursuing the hemp oil-based industry through its online store, its planned California unit, and now the corporation formation in Canada. The goal of the company is to be the leading Chinese publicly-traded nutritional company. CIIX is projected to reach eight-figure revenues by FY2020, according to a SeeThruEquity research report (http://dtn.fm/j4lAZ), and it is still working its core, high-margin investor relations business within the Chinese-speaking market.

However, its expansion into Canada illustrates that CIIX is eyeing, in addition to hemp-based nutritional products, opportunities in the medical marijuana market. Warren Wang, founder and chief executive officer of CIIX, said the incorporation of CBD Biotechnology in Canada is a “promising step forward” toward the company’s goals of entering the medical marijuana industry. He noted that there are nearly one million Chinese in Canada.

Investor relations and subscription levels continue to grow, the SeeThruEquity report noted, giving CIIX a foothold within the Chinese-speaking community. A research report by Consilium Global Research (http://dtn.fm/5b4qX) added that CIIX’s intimate knowledge and penetration of the native Chinese market in the U.S. and globally, “makes for an enormous and niche opportunity.” It projects company sales reaching $14.8 million by FY2020.

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP) Well-positioned For Expanding Canadian Cannabinoid Market

  • Lexaria Bioscience Corp. well-positioned for growth in expanding Canadian cannabinoid market
  • Canadian market for cannabis extracts and oils expected to top C$1.6 billion by 2020
  • Company’s patented technology infuses organically sourced hemp oil into molecules of other substances such as lipids, the basis of the human endocannabinoid system
  • Patented technology enables better-tasting hemp oil-infused gourmet food products with improved bioavailability of cannabinoids

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP) is well-positioned for growth in the emerging Canadian cannabinoid market. Lexaria is an innovative revenue-generating company developing and out-licensing proprietary technology for delivering bioactive compounds including cannabinoids.

With full legalization expected in 2018, the Canadian market for cannabis extracts and oils is expected to top C$1.6 billion by 2020. Lexaria is at the forefront of innovation in the biosciences sector as pioneering biopharmaceutical companies in Canada and elsewhere work to research and develop healthy cannabinoid products. Investment capital in these “plant-to-bloodstream” companies is expected to grow exponentially. As a first mover into this space, Lexaria is well-positioned for increasing market share and revenue.

While cannabinoids such as cannabidiol (CBD) and THC boast a wide range of health benefits, they are poorly absorbed by the human gastrointestinal tract. Lexaria’s products take advantage of the company’s patented technology to offer health-conscious consumers improved absorption and taste of orally-ingested products. Lexaria’s lipophilic enhancement technology is proven to enhance the bioavailability of orally-ingested cannabinoids, thus allowing for lower dosages.

The company is in discussions for or has already signed B2B agreements with companies in Canada, the largest-market states in the U.S., and internationally. Lexaria has also developed its own brands using its patented technology to infuse hemp oil ingredients within lipids in foods. These brands include ViPova™, Lexaria Energy Foods, and TurboCBD™.

Lexaria continues research and development, signing a collaborative research agreement with the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) in February 2017 to investigate new opportunities in bioavailability enhancement of lipophilic active ingredient compositions. The company believes its patented technology can be utilized for the delivery of nicotine, vitamins, analgesics and a variety of other substances.

Algae Dynamics Corp. (ADYNF) is Developing Therapies that Offer Safer Delivery of Cannabinoids

  • Focused on cannabis oil product development
  • Collaborating with Universities of Waterloo & Western Ontario in R&D
  • Strategy to capture market share of non-smoke MMJ products

For MMJ patients who don’t want to take up smoking, Algae Dynamics Corp. (OTCQB: ADYNF) is developing non-smoking delivery systems for cannabinoids. The company aims to produce new formulations of algae and cannabis oils that deliver health benefits without the attendant dangers that result from smoking.

Smoking is a killer. Statistics published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that ‘cigarette smoking kills more than 480,000 Americans each year, with more than 41,000 of these deaths from exposure to secondhand smoke’ (http://dtn.fm/DkH6X). Smoking–related illness costs the U.S. economy ‘more than $300 billion a year, including nearly $170 billion in direct medical care for adults and $156 billion in lost productivity’. Yet, tobacco use is a preventable cause of death and disease, which the 15 percent of the population who smoke can avoid, and many would do so if they are presented with non-smoking ways to use tobacco or cannabis.

Luckily, there is more than one way to skin the cannabis cat, for not only can it be smoked but it can be vaporized, and its oil can be extracted or tinctures may be made from it. Smoking is, undoubtedly, a common method of delivery. The simplest way of using cannabis is burning and smoking the (female) inflorescence. The flowers and buds of female plants contain the highest concentrations of cannabinoids, while male flowers contain much less. Leaves of both genders contain cannabinoids and may be mixed with the inflorescence to be smoked. Extracts from the plant are also processed to produce hashish, for example, which tends to be smoked as well. Cannabis is sometimes heated to produce a vapor that can be inhaled or the inflorescence may be immersed in a solvent, such as alcohol, to produce a tincture rich in cannabinoids.

The Algae Dynamics Corp. way, however, is the extraction of the oils from cannabis. In December 2016, the company announced a new oil extraction initiative in the Canadian cannabis industry (http://dtn.fm/ZbS8h). It plans to deploy its existing extraction technology of algae oil to cannabis. To supplement this initiative, ADYNF is expanding its research and product development (R&D) partnerships with Canadian academia, planning to sign supply, service and sales agreements with existing Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (ACMPR) licensed producers, and the company plans to submit an application to become a producer and seller of medical marijuana under the ACMPR.

The cannabis oil extraction industry is expected to hit C$1.7 billion by 2020. This exponential growth will, in part, be propelled by a desire for cannabinoid delivery methods that do not involve smoking. A study by Mackie Research Capital found that 45 percent of dried marijuana users in Colorado State would eventually convert to marijuana extracts and oils. If that is indicative of cannabis use generally, then ADYNF’s safer delivery methodology is soon likely to be very much in demand.

ProBility Media Corp. (PBYA) Providing the 21st Century Apprenticeship

  • National training and career advancement for the skilled trades
  • 21st century version of apprenticeships
  • Consolidating skilled trades training market for market dominance

When it comes to training and education, no one size fits all. Prior to the proliferation of colleges and universities, education and training were achieved through a system of apprenticeship originating during the Middles Ages. Back then, master craftsmen employed young people as inexpensive labor in exchange for food, lodging and formal training in the craft. Most went on to become tradesmen or even master craftsmen themselves. Over time, the apprenticeship system slowly faded until, sometime in the last few generations, the belief evolved that a college degree was the only way to get ahead. However, abundant employment opportunities and good wages are still found in trade jobs, but these positions increasingly require special technical skills and training.

Preparing the American workforce for the technical jobs of today and the growth industries of tomorrow has become an important challenge facing our society. We know that in the near future robots, autonomous vehicles, and artificial intelligence are going to fundamentally change the nature of work. It takes colleges and universities years to understand and respond to industry trends and to then develop education programs to try to fill the need. The situation demands a far more nimble training system that can produce skilled workers today yet shift quickly to new technologies and business opportunities on the horizon.

ProBility Media Corp. (OTCQB: PBYA) delivers just such a responsive and relevant education system, offering training and continuing education relevant to the workplace demands of both today and tomorrow. One of the nation’s leading online providers of career advancement and training content for tradesman and technical experts, ProBility is changing the landscape of the skilled trades training and certification industry. ProBility has built the first full-service training and career advancement brand in the technical fields and provides the training and skills needed to get and keep good jobs today while preparing for the jobs of the future. The company has grown to become the go-to source for e-learning and training content, as well as exam preparation, testing, certification, continuing education, and career advancement tools designed for engineers and tradesmen. ProBility plans continued organic growth from current operations and, through the strategic acquisition of synergistic companies, to ultimately reach a position of market dominance.

The company’s wide ranging online technical and skilled trades programs have become the 21st century’s version of the apprentice system. ProBility is preparing the American workforce to achieve excellence today and well into the future, creating a company that continues to grow for its investors because it is unique in efficiently addressing a fast growing market.

Five trends to improve Grocery Retailers

Retail grocery listings are still reeling from Amazon’s (NASDAQ: AMZN) plans to take over Whole Foods (NASDAQ: WFM), but let’s face it, with grocers already running paper-thin profit margins, it is the recently announced U.S. expansion plans for German hyper-efficient supermarkets Aldi and Lidl that had the grocery retailers already on edge. After all, online shopping isn’t new, with WalMart’s (NYSE: WMT) Jet, Kroger’s (NYSE: KR) HomeShop, and Costco’s (NASDAQ: COST) Shipt being just some of the current home grocery delivery options.

Unlike most industries, where online shopping is the norm, grocery shopping has been slow to change. Thus, despite the rapid growth rate, home delivery accounts for slightly more than 1% of the industry’s more than $700 billion in annual sales. It makes sense, because, whereas most consumers trust the pizza shop to deliver a consistent product, most shoppers don’t trust their own family members to pick out their produce.

The industry’s challenge is to implement new technologies and models to improve efficiencies and the broader shopping experience, as well as improve the company’s street cred. For example, to lower costs and reduce its carbon footprint, Wal-Mart began experimenting with solar energy panels and Bloom Energy’s “Bloom boxes,” which efficiently incorporate a cleaner electrochemical process to convert natural gas into electricity.

With that in mind, we’re going to look at five must-have technologies/trends that grocery retailers should incorporate.

Refrigerant

Grocers use more energy than other retailers because of their refrigeration demands, which remains one of their largest fixed costs. Alltemp (OTCB: LTMP) recently created a new refrigerant that maximizes performance via saving energy and increasing equipment life while protecting the environment; after testing in several Fortune 500 facilities, the refrigerant is now ready for market.

Refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pumps account for about 10% of the global carbon emissions and energy consumption. Case studies confirm that Alltemp’s refrigerant significantly reduced the AMP draw to more than 40% from 10%. Alltemp’s test case at a McDonald’s restaurant location recorded a 23.7% kWh in refrigeration savings, while tests at 7Eleven, which more closely resembles the retail grocery model, reduced the refrigeration use by 38.16%.

Additionally, government regulations and rising R-22 prices were going to force millions of homeowners and business owners to replace their R-22-based air conditioners, creating a massive landfill nightmare and creating the financial burden of replacing decades’ worth of existing units. Plus, the energy savings are enough for some users to qualify for Energy Tax Credits.

Lighting

In many markets, daytime lighting costs can nearly be eliminated by incorporating solar lighting tubes, while LED lighting can go a long way to reducing lighting costs and improving the shopping experience.

Community hub

The general store at one point in time was the community hub of every American town; today’s grocers should embrace that important role and actively reinsert themselves as the historical community hub. Opportunities to do so range from offering cooking and nutrition classes to helping landlords attract complementary tenants so busy shoppers can order their nonperishable online, attend a workout class or other activity, and afterward spend a few minutes picking out their fruits and veggies.

Honest packaging

Grab a box of Cascadian Farms granola and I challenge you to squeeze it, wherever you want, without pressing against the contents. Unlike the traditional cereal offerings, which are in huge packages, but only half full, most consumers want quality ingredients in sustainable packaging.

Bio friendly packaging

Speaking of sustainable footprint, major improvements in packaging materials will be the next wave of consumer interest. Companies such as Coca-Cola have been introducing bioplastics into their production process for a few years, with the ultimate goal being a 100% bioplastic. Industry rival PepsiCo has also experimented with edible packaging options. The “plant” bottle should be a huge improvement by reduce its environmental impact and, hopefully, reduce the negative health effects of BPAs and other toxins related to common modern packaging.

Instead of food inflation through loss of quality, it’s time that the grocers get in line with today’s trends.

ProBility Media’s (PBYA) Acquisition of W Marketing Expands Its Share of the Educational Market in the $130 Billion Electrical Industry

  • Electrical contractor industry in the U.S. consists of 70,000 electrical firms, 650,000 workers
  • ProBility Media sees expansion in skilled building trades with “aggressive push” for infrastructure rebuilding from the new administration
  • W Marketing offers reference guides and training DVDs as it advocates education for the electrical and construction industries

When ProBility Media Corp.
